Descrizione

La Jacquessonne Blanc de Meunier Premier Cru, crafted by Louis Brochet for Folonari, expresses a sincere and immediate character. On the nose it opens with white-fleshed fruit and ripe citrus, with a background of white flowers and hints of yeast and freshly baked bread that reflect the mousse development. The palate is lean but enveloping: fine effervescence, lively acidity and a pleasant creaminess that supports the overall dynamic. The sapidity and clean drinkability balance the substance, giving a fresh, flowing progression without unnecessary heaviness.

It proves a happy companion for aperitifs and seafood dishes — oysters, shellfish, carpaccios — but also stands up to light fried dishes and soft cheeses; also excellent as an all-meal wine for those seeking freshness and drinkability. Serve well chilled in tulip glasses to enjoy the perlage and aromatic clarity; it is a bottle that speaks of immediacy and character, ideal for those who like a straightforward and measured style of Champagne.

Winery history

The Folonari family has deep roots in the Brescia area and has been involved in wine production since the late 18th century. At the end of the 19th century the headquarters were moved to Brescia, and in the early 20th century the family acquired the historic Ruffino winery. In the 1960s Nino Folonari began a shift toward quality with the acquisition of estates in Chianti. In 2000 Ambrogio and Giovanni Folonari established Ambrogio e Giovanni Folonari Tenute, which brings together several estates in Tuscany, while the Folonari brand offers an extensive range of table wines and appellation wines.

Production philosophy

Enhance the production areas, combine tradition and innovation, and focus on grape quality to produce wines that are distinctive and closely tied to their territory; the company's plan includes investments in the estates and attention to the diversity of terroirs.

Terroir and vineyards

Headquarters and estates are mainly in Tuscany, with production and a presence also in north-eastern regions such as Veneto and in areas like the Collio; the company’s history begins in the Bresciano and includes references to territories around Lake Garda and beyond.

Awards and recognitions
